For over 25 years\, Jay White has cont
inued to stretch his singing and acting talents\, while reflecting the sta
ge persona of one of the world’s best loved musical icons. Validation came
from Hollywood Director Ron Howard\, who in 2008 cast Jay to play Neil Di
amond in the Academy Award nominated film “Frost/Nixon”. In 2002\, Jay beg
an his 8 years as a Las Vegas showroom headliner at the Riviera\, sparking
national interest and recognition. Leeza Gibbons of “Entertainment Tonigh
t” wrote: “He’s uncanny and truly amazing!” While Ron Howard said\, “Your
portrayal of Neil Diamond was excellent.”\nIn 1996 and again in 2002
\, White met Diamond before his Vegas MGM appearances\, where Neil told Ja
y to “keep up the good work” and autographed a photo of the two signing\,
“Jay\, keep singing\, so I can stay home and relax\, your friend in music.
”\nFrom passionate crowds rushing the stage at corporate events\, to
1500 enthusiastic alumni at Princeton University\, to the cheers of some
18\,000 screaming fans in several Salt Lake City performances\, White is g
rateful that his years of hard work and dedication are still so convincing
and so appreciated.
